Ryan and Chad led some great groups during the week, as they traversed Chinamans Gulch, Holy Cross, Wheeler Lake, and Halfmoon Creek.
Monday was the first day of wheeling, and Chad led the group down to BV with Ryan and Morgan tail gunning. The folks from T&T joined us on this run.
On day two, Ryan led the group up Holy Cross, including the folks from Nemesis Industries. The day before, it apparently rained all day on that group and it made for a heck of a bad day on the trail. But with the expert leading the way, and no rain, our group made the trail look easy!! Only a couple winch lines were pulled during the day all the way to Holy Cross City, and french Creek was a breeze for almost everyone.
After lunch at the city, it was time to go get crazy on Cleveland Rock. Ryan gave it the first try, and had no luck at all. The winch came out and pulled him up after his Jeep decided it wanted to wave at everyone. Morgan and Chad also gave it really good shots and made it almost all the way up, but again the winches had to come out.
Stefanie crawling up Cleveland... she did it all without a winch!
We headed on out and made it back to camp with no damage in our group except a ton of rock rash and some loose bolts.Thursday we ran a group to Wheeler Lake where we didn't get any pics. And then we led a night run up Birds Eye Gulch. great night run with only 2 decent pics. All those little dots are jeeps!!
The final day was halfmoon creek and although it rained all afternoon, it was still an awesome way to end the week!
Performing some trail maintenance as me and morgan winched this big tree off the trail. And no we are not off trail, there is actually a camping spot just below the tree, so it made it a perfect spot to position.
If you have the time next year, CHECK THIS EVENT OUT!! It will be in Silverton in 2014!
